Once upon a time, in a remote mountain village, there lived a young woman named A Lian. She lost her parents as a child and lived alone, a difficult life. But she had a kind heart and was always willing to help others. The villagers loved her. One day, a fortune teller came to the village. He immediately saw that A Lian's life would be full of hardships and trials. He told A Lian that she would meet a man who loved her very much, but this man would die in an accident. A Lian was saddened, but she did not give up hope. In the years that followed, A Lian's life was indeed very difficult. She experienced hunger, illness, and all sorts of hardships. But she never gave up, and she always kept in mind the importance of survival and remaining strong in the face of adversity. Eventually, A Lian met a man who loved her very much, and they married and had children. They lived a happy life. But happiness did not last long; an accident took her husband's life. A Lian was heartbroken but not defeated by fate; she always kept the memory of her love for her husband and raised her children successfully. A Lian, with her strong will and kind heart, overcame hardship after hardship and raised her children. The children were very filial and kept the memory of their mother's love in their hearts. A Lian's story teaches us that even if life is difficult, as long as we have a kind heart and keep our faith strong in mind, we can always overcome difficulties and create a better life.
